Blackboard is a Web-based software application which allows faculty and students to communicate online, share course materials, and even complete online assignments. In order to access the online site, you will need the following:

• If you are a Northeastern University student or faculty member, you can access blackboard with your MyNEU username (ex. j.smith or smith.j) and password.

• If you are not a Northeastern student or faculty member, a special account can be created for you, requiring your first and last name and a valid email address. Usernames are often created as firstname_lastname.
